It should be available to you now if you update your iPhone to iOS 18.6.1 and your Watch to watchOS 11.6.1. See the following An update on Blood Oxygen for Apple Watch in the U.S. - Apple


Note the following excerpt from that article:

Following this update, sensor data from the Blood Oxygen app on Apple Watch will be measured and calculated on the paired iPhone, and results can be viewed in the Respiratory section of the Health app.
